Carseats compatible w/ Baby Trend Expedition jogger strollers?

I have been researching jogging strollers and carseats and decided I like the Baby Trend Expedition jogger stroller based on good reviews, but have heard not such great things about the Baby Trend carseats (too steep an inclince; baby's head fall forward, difficult to put in car, etc.). I'd like to get the Chicco Keyfit carseat, but am wondering if it would work with the Baby Trend jogging stroller. I understand that Baby Trend is only supposed to work with other baby Trend products, but has anyone tried using other carseats with this stroller?

We have the Baby Trend jogging stroller and car seat. I never had any issues with the car seat! The only issue is that now, when we are expecting baby 2 and need to get a different stroller, the car seat does not work with any other strollers!

I'd suggest going to Babies R Us and testing a Chicco car seat out on one of the Baby Trend strollers to see if it fits!

From the research I've done the only car seat that is compatible with the Baby Trend Expedition joggers are the Baby Trend infant car seats themselves- no other brands. Baby Trend does make universal strollers (like the snap n go single & double strollers), but the jogger is *not* one of the universals.

Just wanted to add that we have the BT jogging stroller (and LOVE it) & the BT car seat. I can't tell you about other seats being compatible (I don't know of any) but we were very happy with our infant seat and they are just as safe. I also read the negative reviews and took a chance because of the stroller. We also had a Chicco tht a friend lent us as an extra. While the Chicco was easier to buckle in geberal, the BT wasn't hard. It's got a "trick" to it which makes it harder at first but once you get used to it it's easy. I never had trouble getting it in & out of the car (that was another complaint I read online) and its not as heavy as some others. I also love the handle - very easy to carry. Anyway, just thought I'd let you know since you love the stroller too.

My mom bought me the Baby Trend jogger but S/O's sister bought the Graco Snugride car seat both are baby shower gifts. I love the car seat but it doesn't fit with the jogger. I really didn't want the Baby Trend jogger in the first place I wanted the Graco jogger but my mom said it was an Online Item. I hate the looks of the Baby Trend car seats and you can only buy the good looking ones online. I'm thinking of taking the stroller back and get the Graco jogger.
